It's so good! I got that new coffee creamer that is peppermint mocha. I also got a half gallon of another flavor of coffee creamer but I can't think of the name of it. It's not almond. It's something else...Ameretto or something like that. I also got the dry kind for when those are gone. I'm drinking decaf coffee because the regular kind messes with my breathing medicines and I get very jittery.
Have you tried any new coffee creamers? What flavor were they and how did you like them? I like the pumpkin spice too. That is really good. I wonder if it would be good in tea too?

I haven't actually looked for any but if there is one with vanilla and caramel flavors, I'd definitely start drinking more coffee for that one! lol I have used vanilla bean flavored creamer and loved it. I just don't drink enough coffee to warrant the cost of a creamer. I usually just use milk.
I've been drinking a lot more tea lately. I had a sinus infection with a 3-day-long headache when I decided to try green tea with a tablespoon of honey and a half-teaspoon of cinnamon. Both honey and cinnamon are excellent anti-inflammatories, plus honey is a natural antibiotic. You know, after 3 days of drinking that tea twice a day, my sinus infection and headache were completely gone!
Recently, I learned that drinking 3 to 4 cups of green tea a day help to lose weight. A study was done and showed that people who drank that much green tea every day lost an average of 5 pounds over 7 weeks while not doing anything differently. They ate like they always ate and didn't exercise any more than usual but they all lost around 5 pounds.
I also read an article about eating cinnamon and honey every day helping quite a lot with arthritic pain (due to the anti-inflammatory properties).
All these reasons are good enough for me to start drinking more tea than usual. I typically drink one cup of hot tea or one glass of iced tea every day but I'm increasing that to 3 cups/glasses every day. Whether it is hot or iced depends on my mood at the time and, of course, the weather. Iced tea for me in the hot summer months!
But, I might just try some flavored creamers in my tea soon. I always like trying new things. I might just hit on my absolute favorite flavor one of these days.

Honey is good for an asthma attack too. I would like to get some green tea to make. I don't buy the bottles anymore. I don't think there's much good in those.

I don't use creamer in my coffee. Have you seen the ingredients in those artificially-flavored, chemically-laden "creamers"? Yech...
If I want to add flavor to my coffee, I will add good quality hot chocolate to it, caramel, whipped cream (none of that Cool Whip rubbish) and/or a bit of spice. I can create all sorts of flavor blends for my coffee without resorting to buying fake "foods."

I like my creamers. I'll keep buying them.
. I like my cool whip too. I use it on strawberries. I buy the light. I used to buy heavy cream and then went to half and half. But now I use the creamers.
On a different note, I'm going to make my own Alfredo sauce instead of buying it in a jar. I'm going to make chicken Alfredo to go over pasta this week.

I don't use coffee creamer at all anymore, but do like flavored coffees. Ameretto is one of my favorites! Also, I wanted to comment on your question as to whether you can put in tea too. Yes! It works in teas too! Have fun trying all those new flavors!

Thanks. I will try it when I get some tea tomorrow. I also like hazelnut.

sometimes coffee just needs an extra kick to spark the flavor. Peppermint mocha sounds very inviting to coffee. I have never tried the pumpkin spice but I know a lot of people who are clinging to this flavor for their coffee. French vanilla is also popular with many coffee drinkers.

I like French Vanilla too but I never buy it anymore.

Hi
Pointless I´m glad to read you again. I had some peppermint for my coffe yesterday. Peppermint tea or creamed on coffe has warming properties. I broke my nose two days ago and I´m been pampered by my mom, who brought me a delicious peppermint creamed coffee. Here at my country there´s also a burned milk candy, called cajeta, it´s like soft toffee, and we have this variety cream too.
Blessings
